passed  on  to  the  Great  Beyond  to  receive  the  crown  of  righteousness  laid  up 
for  all  that  love  II is  appearing.

INTRODUCTION 

This  brochure  presents  in  some  details  the  particu- 
lars of  the  vast  Centenary  budget.  It  is  sent  forth 
with  the  hope  that  a great  multitude  will  assume  re- 
sponsibility for  the  items  set  forth  herein. 

It  is  a catalogue  of  investments  one  may  make  in 
the  Kingdom  of  God. 


It  is  a survey  of  the  spiritual  territory  to  be  taken  in  JESUS’  NAME. 

It  represents  both  reinforcements  and  sinews  of  war  to  the  thin  line  which 
has  occupied  tin*  front  trenches  of  the  World's  outposts  in  the  advance  of  the 
Kingdom  of  God  against  ignorance,  superstition,  selfishness  and  greed. 


To  “Carry  On"  this  program  to  tin*  end  will  bring  salvation,  education, 
civilization  and  the  pursuit  of  happiness  to  the  heart  hungry  millions  of 
heathen  lands.  It  will  mean  making  our  own  land  a thoroughly  Christian 
nation,  thereby  bringing  thousands  of  friendless  and  neglected  ones  into  a 
safe  citizenship.  To  the  Avar-broken  lands  of  Europe  it  will  mean  the  rebuild 
ing  <>f  ruined  towns  and  villages,  care  for  the  orphans  and  the  re-establishment 
of  the  people  in  their  homes.  To  those  who  “Carry  On”  this  program,  it  Avill 
mean  the  quickening  of  their  spiritual  life,  tin*  broadening  of  their  intelli- 
gence, the  Avidening  of  their  sympathy — a spiritual  “Croix  de  Guerre.” 

Flung  far  and  Avide  to  the  sympathetic  heart  of  a truly  missionary  church 
is  the  special  message  of  this  spiritual  catalogue.  For  a hundred  years  men 
and  women  have  been  “Carrying  On”  the  missionary  work  of  American 
Methodism.  One  by  one  these  pioneers  have  passed  back  the  Avords,  “Carry 
On.”  And  now  in  this  eventful  era  of  the  world’s  history,  God’s  soldiers 
must  heed  the  call.  We  heartily  believe  that  tin*  Methodists  of  the  great 
South  and  West  Avill  respond  to  this  appeal  Avith  undaunted  courage,  convic- 
tion and  sacrifice:  and  that  with  faith  undimmed  they  Avill  “Carry  On”  the 
great  enterprise  which  the  Church  has  undertaken. 


The  total  of  $35,000,000  asked  in  the  Centenary  is  a summation  of  itemized 
askings  from  all  the  foreign  mission  fields;  mission  operations  in  the  United 
States;  the  regular  income  for  missions  from  all  sources,  and  the  reconstruc- 
tion program  in  Europe.  These  askings  are  based  upon  a scientific  survey 
and  were  approved  by  the  missions  in  each  field  by  the  constituted  boards, 
the  Centenary  Commission,  and  the  endorsement  of  the  General  Conference. 


Full  information  and  the  story  of  any  object  contained  in  these  pages  will 
be  furnished  on  application  to  the  Centenary  Bureau  of  Specials,  S10  Broad- 
way. Nashville,  Tenn. 

The  objects  marked  Avith  a star  are  reserved  exclusively  for  Sunday  Schools. 
The  Department  of  Missionary  Education  of  the  Sunday  School  Board  will 
give  information  concerning  them. 

There  are  many  other  objects  which  are  not  included  in  this  book.  Write 
for  additional  items  if  you  do  not  find  what  you  AA’ant. 

THE  HEART  OF  THE  CENTENARY  IS  LAID  BARE  TO  THE  CHURCH 
IN  THIS  BOOK.

AFRICA 


“I  believe  that  if  the  facts  as  they  exist  in  Africa  could  only  be  brought 
home  to  the  churches  in  America;  that  the  people  of  Africa  are  actually  beg- 
ging for  teachers,  and  millions  are  now  in  darkness,  not  by  reason  of  their 
own  neglect,  but  because  Christian  people  have  not  obeyed  the  Great  Coin  mis 
sion,  they  would  rise  up  and  put  an  eml  to  conditions  under  which  it  can  be 
truly  said  that  the  people  are  asking  in  vain  for  the  privilege  of  becoming 
Christians.”

The  territory  served  by  the  Congo  Mission  covers  over  seventy  thousand 
square  miles,  and  there  are  on  the  field  at  present  only  eight  missionaries. 

The  two  teachers  will  make  possible  the  great  educational  ideal  of  the 
Congo  Mission,  to  teach  every  boy  and  girl  in  the  Batetela  tribe  to  read  and  to 
write  the  Batetela  language. 

The  four  physicians  are  needed  so  that,  at  no  time,  will  any  one  of  our 
stations  (which  should  number  three  at  the  close  of  ihe  five  years)  be  left  un- 
supplied and  the  lives  of  missionaries  jeopardized  by  the  lack  of  this  im- 
portant person. 

The  dentist  can  divide  his  time  between  the  Methodist  and  Presbyterian 
missions  and  find  plenty  to  keep  him  busy. 

The  captain  will  be  needed  for  the  steamboat  which  is  to  be  put  on  the 
Sankuru  and  Kasai  rivers  and  their  tributaries. 

No  work  of  the  Congo  Mission  is  more  promising  than  the  Boys’  School, 
for  here  the  boys  are  kept  constantly  in  touch  with  the  Mission  and  the  mis- 
sionaries and  away  from  the  devastating  influences  of  their  own  native  vil- 
lages. They  are  taught  to  read  and  write,  they  become  thoroughly  instructed 
in  the  Scriptures. 

Explanation  should  be  made  of  the  seeming  discrepancy  between  the  cost 
of  the  station  churches  and  of  the  homes  for  missionaries.  Churches  in  the 
Congo  do  not  need  to  be  enclosed;  a neat  fence,  built  of  the  ever-present  palm, 
suffices  to  keep  out  intruding  animals.  The  floor  is  made  of  dirt  firmly  beaten, 
and  as  the  African  native  wears  no  shoes,  this  floor  does  not  soon  become 
dusty.  On  the  other  hand,  the  missionary’s  home  must  have  walls,  it  must 
have  board  floors  built  high  above  the  ground,  it  must  be  well  screened  to  keep 
out  the  mosquito,  and  entirely  surrounded  by  a wide  verandah  to  protect  the 
walls  from  rains  and  the  inmates  from  the  sun.  Even  with  all  these  comforts 
the  price  is  very  low,  not  only  on  the  homes,  but  on  all  the  buildings.  Labor 
is  cheap  and  materials  are  free. 

The  schoolhouses,  which  are  put  down  at  one  thousand  dollars  each,  will 
be  thoroughly  equipped. 

The  equipment  of  fhe  three  workshops  will  consist  largely  of  hardware, 
which  will  probably  be  bought  in  America,  as  American  hardwaie  is  so  much 
superior  to  any  other. 

Included  in  the  hospitals  will  be  lazarets  for  sleeping-sickness  patients 
and  for  lepers.

No  missionary  is  more  greatly  needed  than  the  woman  teacher.  It  is  abso 
lately  necessary  to  have  women  teachers  for  native  women  and  girls. 

In  the  Girls'  Homes  the  native  girls  will  be  brought  under  the  influence  of 
the  missionaries  and  kept  under  their  influence.  As  the  name  indicates,  they 
are  to  be  homes,  and  no  native  girl  knows  the  meaning  of  home  in  her  village. 
It  is  a fact,  when  we  say,  that  practically  no  native  girl  will  ever  arrive  to 
pure  womanhood  unless  she  is  taken  from  her  village  while  still  young  and 
kept  in  a Mission  Home.

BRAZIL 


‘‘After  a careful  study  of  the  situation  I have  come  to  the  conclusion  that 
we  have  not  in  all  the  world  a mission  field  whose  deep  moral  needs  and  utter 
spiritual  darkness  constitute  a more  urgent  missionary  appeal  than  that  in 
Brazil.  The  evangelization  of  this  great  country,  with  its  millions  steeped  in 
superstition  and  ignorance,  is  a stupendous  task,  calling  for  the  best  we  can 
give  of  heroism  and  sacrifice  on  the  part  of  the  missionaries  and  the  Church 
at  home.”

‘‘If  you  could  see  some  of  the  places  where  I preach  the  Gospel  of  Jesus 
Christ  i(  would  bring  tears  to  your  eyes  and  shame  to  your  hearts.  If  a for- 
eigner should  come  to  your  town,  preaching  some  strange  doctrine  in  an  out- 
of-the-way  street,  in  a little  hole,  dark  and  dirty,  with  not  the  least  suggestion 
of  comfort  or  hygiene,  where  all  tin*  surroundings  bespeak  inefficiency  and 
smallness  of  purpose  and  lack  of  imagination,  how  long  do  you  think  you 
would  stop  to  consider  the  claims  of  that  man's  religion  on  your  life?  This 
description  may  not  mean  much  to  you,  but  if  you  could  stand  by  my  side 
and  look  into  the  faces  of  men  as  they  stop  in  the  street  and  look  for  a moment 
into  the  place  where  I am  preaching,  and  then  pass  on  with  an  expression  of 
pity  or  contempt  written  all  over  them,  then  you’d  understand  how  my  heart 
cries  out  for  better  material  equipment,  for  preaching  places  that  will  not 
repulse  more  than  our  message  attracts.”

Our  Mission  in  Brazil  has  established  a most  brilliant  record  in  educa- 
tional work,  Granbery  College,  Union  College,  Piraeieaba  College,  the  Semi- 
nary. and  tin*  School  of  Pharmacy  and  Dentistry,  all  for  boys,  have  done  much 
for  the  Brazilians.  A Union  Theological  Seminary  and  Evangelical  Univer- 
sity must  have  the  support  of  our  Church.  An  Industrial  and  Agricultural 
School  must  be  founded  and  thirty  three  parochial  schools  created.  With 
our  schools  better  equipped  and  the  new  ones  put  in  operation  the  success 
of  our  educational  enterprises  in  Brazil  is  assured.

a course  in  Theology  as  is  possible  in  three  years'  time.  In  the  past  the  work

“Tin*  friendship  now  existing  between  Brazil  and  the  United  States  makes 
the  present  a time  of  opportunity.  Never  before  has  this  country  been  so 
ready  to  receive  what  the  United  States  lias  to  give  her.  because  the  relation- 
ship between  the  two  countries  is  more  friendly  than  ever  before.  This  new 
understanding  gives  urgency  to  the  present  opportunit}’. 

‘‘There  are  no  movements  for  the  improvement  of  conditions  among  women 
and  children,  Perhaps  one  of  the  greatest  needs  of  this  land  is  some  move- 
ment for  the  betterment  of  child  life.  The  children  live  on  the  streets  and 
their  parents  do  not  know  how  to  teach  them  or  control  them.  A large  number 
<d'  them  are  not  in  school,  many  of  whom  could  not  find  places  if  they  wished 
to  attend.  Some  of  the  few  Protestant  children  are  not  in  school  because 
their  parents  cannot  conscientiously  send  them  to  public  schools,  where 
images  of  the  Catholic  Church  are  set  up. 

‘‘The  children  know  little  of  play  and  their  only  amusement  is  the  moving 
picture,  which  is  of  a very  low  class  and  generally  immoral.’’

from  the  responsibility  of  educating  the  people  that  accept  her  ministry. 
This  holds  good  in  all  cases,  but  when  China’s  needs  are  considered  the  re-

The  native  pastor,  in  order  to  render  to  the  Church  the  most  efficient,  un- 
interrupted service,  must  have  a comfortable  place  in  which  to  live.  Eighty 
per  cent  of  the  native  workers  in  China  live  in  rented  buildings.  The  money

‘‘Our  chapel  seats  only  100.  W(*  confidently  expect  to  have  at  least  1.000 

members  within  a very  short  time.  We  are  on  tin*  edge  of  the  main  business

Within  ten  minutes’  walk  of  us  are  1,000  students  in  non-Christian  schools, 
and  scores  of  them  come  to  us  constantly.  The  military  barracks,  with  from 
one  to  three  thousand  soldiers,  is  also  within  a quarter  of  a mile  of  us.  Here 
is  a great  field  white  to  harvest,  but  NO  HOUSE  in  which  to  gather  the

INDUSTRIAL  SCHOOL  (place  to  be  selected)  *20.000 

China  is  now  ripe  for  such  an  enterprise.  It  represents  one  of  the  out- 
standing needs  of  a country  of  four  hundred  million.  Thousands  of  boys  are 
hungering  for  an  education  and  cannot  get  it  because  they  have  no  money. 
An  industrial  school  will  give  them  the  chance  to  become  Christians,  to  be 
self-respecting,  and  self-sustaining — not  only  while  in  school  but  in  the  years 
to  come.  It  is  expected  that  the  plant  proposed  will  be  self-supporting  within 
live  years.

SCHOOLS 

“One  of  the  most  significant  movements  in  China  today  is  the  education 
of  women.  Only  a few  years  ago  the  Mission  Schools  were  paying  Chinese 
girls  to  attend  school.  Today  not  only  our  Mission  Schools  are  full  of  paying 
students,  hut  the  Government  has  opened  many  schools  for  girls.  The  Republic 
brought  a certain  amount  of  freedom  to  t Iso  women  and  girls  and  they  are 
eagerly  appropriating  it  and  reaching  out  for  more.  In  this  transition  stage 
of  social  reconstruction,  in  Ibis  time  of  danger,  they  need  protection  and  guid- 
ance. If  Christian  educational  institutions  are  not  provided  for  them,  lhe\ 
will  obtain  their  education  wherever  they  can  find  it.”

women.  Fourteen  of  the  twenty-six  are  missionary  institutions,  and  eleven 
of  these  are  for  men  and  three  for  women.  The  situation  is  most  urgent.  As

the  Chinese  woman.  Now  is  the  opportunity.  In  a few  years  it  will  have

The  hope  of  China  is  in  its  rising  generation.  Ninety-seven  and  a half  per

“The  majority  of  China's  millions  are  poor,  and  have  to  work  for  their 
living.  At  an  early  age — sometimes  live  years — they  are  placed  in  shops, 
mills,  or  factories  to  learn  a trade.  Their  hours  are  from  daylight  to  mid- 
night, in  some  cases.  They  have  to  sleep  in  dark  rooms,  and  insanitary  condi- 
tions surround  them.  When  they  reach  an  age  to  make  a living,  they  are 
weaklings,  or  have  developed  tuberculosis.  Industrial  work  will  afford  an 
unequalled  opportunity  to  help  the  mass  of  Chinese  people.  By  teaching  a 
trade  to  the  Chinese,  who  cannot  afford  an  education,  we  will  find  it  easy  to 
gain  access  to  their  hearts  to  preach  the  Gospel.”

CUBA 

In  dealing  politically  with  tin*  Cuban  people  our  nation  lias  shown  mag- 
nanimity without  parallel  in  the  world's  history.  Precedent  would  have  sug- 
gested that  when  tin*  suffering  island  had  been  wrested  from  the  clutches  of 
Spain  it  should  become  an  American  dependency,  but  the  sturdy  resistance 
of  Spanish  tyranny  and  the  willingness  of  tin*  Cubans  to  suffer  for  their  liberty 
proved  they  w ere  capable  of  self-rule.  Time  has  shown  that  our  confidence  was 
not  misplaced.  Out  of  confusion  has  come  order,  and  prosperity  reigns 
throughout  the  land.  Her  agricultural  resources  are  unexcelled,  and  her  in- 
dustrial and  commercial  possibilities  are  great. 

Great  as  those  events  are,  what  the  church  of  God  in  America  is  doing 
for  these  people  is  more  enduring.  The  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South, 
felt  she  was  being  led  of  God  to  take  up  work  in  the  new  republic,  and  the 
great  success  that  has  attended  the  work  shows  us  she  has  been  under  His 
guidance.  Much  has  been  accomplished,  but  we  are  called  on  to  do  more.

“Latin  America  needs  most  of  all  a great,  strong,  well-trained  native 
ministry.  As  yet  it  lias  no  Luther,  no  Knox,  no  Wesley.  Some  such  leader 
will  yet  come,  and  it  may  be  sooner  than  we  think.  When  he  comes,  he  will 
come  from  some  of  our  schools  of  the  prophets,  and  we  cannot  make  these 
schools  too  good.” 

The  Church,  School  and  Parsonage  combination  is  one  of  the  most  impor- 
tant projects  in  the  Cuba  askings.  The  one  listed  for  Ciego  de  Axilla  will 
mean  1 he  opening  of  new  work  which  is  needed  to  connect  the  Eastern  and 
Central  Districts  and  the  breaking  of  a gap  of  159  miles.  This  is  a vigor- 
ous, growing  city  and  should  be  occupied  as  soon  as  possible.

casion there  is  no  room  to  accommodate  the  people.  The  school  department  is 
crowded  to  its  utmost  capacity,  and  we  have  been  turning  away  children 
since  the  second  week  of  school.  Everv  foot  of  space  is  crowded,  and  there  is

dence serves  also  as  a dining  room;  the  chapel  for  primary  department  is

crowded,  and  even  the  boys’  dormitory  is  depi  ived  of  a sitting  room  in  order

CENTENARY  PROGRAM— WOMAN’S  WORK 

The  secluded  life  which  (Ik*  women  in  Cuba  lead  makes  difficult  the  work 
of  reach  in}*;  them  in  a helpful  way  through  our  schools  alone.  There  is  ur- 
gent need  for  social  and  evangelistic  workers  who  can,  as  friendly  visitors, 
enter  the  homes  and  carry  the  Gospel  message  to  tin*  women  who  are  living 
in  crowded  tenement  houses,  and  who  can,  also,  through  social  and  evan- 
gelistic work  minister  to  the  spiritual  needs  of  the  women  and  girls  who 
work  in  the  factories  in  the  large  cities.  We  are  asking  for  three  such  mis 
sionaries,  to  lie  located,  one  each  in  the  cities  of  Havana,  Matanzas,  and

“In  the  city  of  Matanzas  at  present  the  Irene  Toland  School  is  the  only 
modern  private  institution  of  learning  for  girls,  and  yet  its  capacity  limits 
ns  to  about  one  hundred  in  a city  of  35,000  inhabitants.  The  need  of  a new 
building  is  imperative.  Little  or  no  advancement  is  possible  until  there  is 
more  room  in  which  to  establish  the  work.  The  third  item  is  for  sets  of 
Physical  and  Chemical  apparatus  and  a Museum  for  the  third  and  fourth 
years  in  the  High  School  Department.  The  first  and  second  years  are  in- 
corporated with  the  Government  Institute  in  this  city,  but  the  other  two 
years  cannot  be  incorporated  until  the  apparatus  has  been  secured.  Should 
we  fail  to  establish  the  four  years’  course,  it  would  result  in  an  irreparable 
loss  to  the  school.  The  fourth  item  is  for  a school  automobile.  At  present 
we  are  using  a guagua  and  mules,  which  is  wholly  inadequate  to  our  needs.”

“The  imperative  need  of  the  school  in  Cienfuegos  is  an  adequate  building 
erected  for  school  purposes  and  properly  equipped.  The  room  we  use  for 
morning  devotional  services  comfortably  seats  less  than  fifty,  and  capacity 
for  one  hundred  is  needed  immediately.  We  must  have  a two-storv  school 
building  with  ample  space  for  an  auditorium,  a combined  library  and  a read- 
ing room,  an  office  for  the  Principal  and  at  least  six  large,  well-ventilated 
school  l ooms.  We  need  a dormitory  for  girls,  built  as  a second  story  over  the 
four  small  rooms  just  back  of  the  garden,  the  lower  story  to  be  remodeled  for 
schoolrooms  or  domestic  science  classes.  Tt  is  impossible  to  do  efficient  work

Christianity  is  the  only  religion  that  appeals  to  Japanese  who  know  world 
conditions.  Not  one  in  the  hundred  of  the  population  can  he  counted  Chris- 
tian. Give  them  missionaries  and  raise  up  native  preachers  in  large  num- 
bers, and  the  evangelization  of  that  great  nation  is  certain.

‘•On  the  map”  Japan  appears  almost  insignificant;  studied  from  every  other 
point  of  view,  she  bulks  large.  Her  early  evangelization  is  one  of  the  urgent 
duties  pressing  upon  the  Church.  Happily,  this  fact  is  admitted  on  all 
hands,  and  churches  that  hesitated  to  press  the  work  fifteen  years  ago  are 
quick  to  acknowledge  that  conditions  for  successful  work  are  favorable.  With- 
in the  last  decade,  leaders  in  the  Church  have  discovered  that  more  work  can 
be  done  than  simply  conserving  the  work  of  the  past.

The  Board  of  Missions  has  built  many  good  churches  in  Japan,  some  of 
them  before  Ihe  Methodist  Union  was  accomplished  and  some  since.  All  these 
were  turned  over  to  the  Japan  Methodist  Church.  Our  missionaries  are  large 
ly  engaged  in  evangelistic  work.  They  have  but  one  church,  a new  building 
at  Tokuvama,  in  which  to  hold  meetings.  All  other  places  of  worship  are 
ordinary  Japanese  houses  not  at  all  suited  to  public  worship.

While  the  Japan  Mission  confidently  expects  the  Centenary  to  provide 
churches  for  the  work  already  established,  the  opportunity  for  unlimited  ex- 
pansion makes  it  necessary  to  rent  a large  number  of  chapels  for  preaching 
and  Sunday  schools.

Generally,  missionaries  go  out  from  comfortable  homes.  Compelling  them 
to  live  in  insanitary  houses  endangers  health,  permanent  retirement  often 
being  the  result.  Economy  demands  that  they  be  properly  housed.

“When  1 consider  the  000,000  and  more  people  in  Kobe  and  think  how 
few  f'hristians  there  are  among  them.  I wonder  why  anybody  with  any  means, 
or  any  church  with  rich  or  wealthy  members  can  withhold  the  small  sums  of 
money  so  necessary  to  make  their  missionaries  efficient  and  to  send  other 
missionaries  that  they  may  liel|)  to  do  a wonderful  work  for  these  souls  so 
long  without  the  knowledge  of  the  true  (Jod  and  our  wonderful  Saviour. 
There  are  not  (5,000  Christians  in  the  whole  city.  Less  than  1 to  the  100.”

The  marvelous  growth  of  Ivwansei  Gakuin  in  recent  years  entitles  it  to 
occupy  the  first  rank  among  Mission  Schools  in  Japan.  Developed  as  the 
Missionary  Centenary  contemplates,  it  will  rank  with  the  best  in  any  land. 
This  institution  was  founded  in  1SS9  by  Bishop  W.  It.  Lambuth,  who  was  then 
the  Superintendent  of  our  Japan  Mission.  Starting  with  only  nine  theo- 
logical and  seventeen  academic  students,  in  a small  cheaply  built  school- 
house,  the  second  story  being  used  as  a dormitory,  for  many  years  it  was  a 
small  mission  school.  However,  deep  foundations  were  being  laid  and  a 
strong  spirit,  with  characteristics  all  its  own,  was  developed.  In  1910  the 
Methodist  Church  of  Canada  united  with  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church, 
South,  by  taking  joint  interest,  ownership,  maintenance  and  control.  It  is 
now  a union  Methodist  institution  for  Japanese  young  men,  with  an  enroll- 
ment of  over  2,000. 


HIROSHIMA  GIRLS’  SCHOOL,  HIROSHIMA $145,000 

Land  and  building  readjustments,  $45,000;  Endowment,  $100,000. 

“This  school  has  just  passed  its  thirtieth  anniversary.  It  is  the  largest 
Mission  Girls'  School  in  Japan,  with  an  enrollment  of  937.  Thirty  years  ago 


there  was  no  provision  for  the  education  of  girls  beyond  the  eighth  grade 
except  a limited  number  in  normal  schools.  Very  few  went  beyond  the  fourth 
year  primary.  Today  there  are  high  schools  in  every  part  of  the  Empire. 
The  daughters  of  every  rank  of  society  enter  these  schools.  In  our  Mission 
School  we  no  longer  have  only  the  official  class,  but  touch  every  class  of  so- 
ciety. Through  the  six  kindergartens  we  reach  out  to  every  part  of  the  city. 
The  Primary  Department  is  a very  important  part.  The  limit  of  this  is  our 
ability  to  provide  for  all  who  wish  to  come.  The  calls  for  kindergartuers  are 
urgent,  but  the  supply  does  not  meet  the  demand.  All  missions  have  recog- 
nized the  kindergarten  as  one  of  the  most  effective  ways  into  the  homes,  and 
thence  to  direct  evangelization.  All  have  not  yet  learned  that  the  work  of  the

sity different.”

“O,  the  untouched  villages  in  Japan!  There  they  lie  in  heathen  darkness, 
hundreds  of  them,  not  knowing  the  unspeakable  grace  of  God  in  Jesus  Christ; 
and  the  factories,  with  their  half  million  women  employes,  only  barely  touched 
of  Him  who  came  with  life  abundant  for  all;  and  those  awful  abodes  of  sin, 
tin  licensed  quarters  of  Japan,  where  the  devil  holds  undisputed  sway,  while 
the  Church  of  the  living  God  seems  powerless  to  break  down  those  mighty 
walls  id'  Jericho  and  set  free  many  women  who  are  not  there  of  their  own 
choice,  but  have  been  sold  into  that  life  to  pay  family  debts;  and  then  that 
other  great  number,  the  women  with  homes  where  no  want  is  known  except 
that  awful  want,  peace — peace,  which  their  poor  hungry  hearts  so  ardently 
long  for,  although  they  dwell  behind  lofty  gates  and  are  surrounded  by  every 
comfort  that  wealth  can  give.  There  are  the  doors  that  await  the  entrance 
of  those  young  women  of  our  Church  who  are  looking  for  a life  work  that 
will  satisfy  the  heart  and  will  stand  the  test  of  that  great  day  when  we  shall 
stand  to  be  judged  at  the  judgment  seat  of  Jesus  Christ.” 

WOMAN’S  EVANGELISTIC  PLANTS 


Japan  is  a land  of  cities.  The  Woman's  Missionary  Council  is  proposing 
through  the  Centenary  to  build  and  equip  evangelistic  plants  to  serve  as  cen- 
ters for  work  with  women  and  girls  in  each  of  thirteen  large  cities.  It  means 
the  launching  of  a city  mission  program  for  Japan.  These  cities  are  teeming 
with  women  and  girls  who  are  at  work  in  great  factories,  and  with  young 
women  who  are  students  in  government  schools.  Each  of  these  plants  will 
be  a social  evangelistic  center  somewhat  like  our  Wesley  Houses  in  this 
country.

size  in  Japan  in  population,  as  well  as  the  first  in  rank  in  commercial  im- 
portance. It  is  now  nearing  the  two  million  mark,  and  the  present  rate  of 
growth  is  far  ahead  of  that  at  any  time  in  the  past.  Osaka,  with  Kobe,  will 
dominate  in  commerce  and  industry,  and  furnish  together  the  greatest  chal- 
lenge for  educational  ami  evangelistic  tcorl.  of  the  most  aggressive  type  on

This  school  was  founded  in  1900  by  Mrs.  -I.  W.  Lambuth.  In  1905  Miss 
Maud  Bonuell  became  principal.  In  her  hands  it  developed  until  now  it  is 
the  most  important  factor  in  the  Council’s  evangelistic  work.  The  territory 
from  which  it  draws  is  mainly  Kobe  District,  Hiroshima  District  and  Mat- 
suyama District,  the  parts  in  which  our  Church  work  is  located  comprising 
about  12,000,000  people.  The  land  for  the  new  plant  has  been  provided.  With 
the  establishment  of  the  plant  we  hope  to  train  an  increasing  number  of  young 
women  to  carry  forward  this  very  important  work.

making,  and  on  our  side  of  the  great  ocean  that  separates  us  we  see  the 
church  backing  every  enterprise  that  will  bring  the  work  into  full  fruition. 
Let  us  not  deceive  ourselves  into  believing  the  work  is  done  It  is  estimated 
that  not  more  than  one  in  11!)  can  be  counted  Christian. 

CENTENARY  PROGRAM— GENERAL  WORK 

WORKERS 

“If  there  is  to  be  an  advance — an  ingathering  of  multitudes  of  believers — 
the  ranks  of  the  missionaries  must  be  recruited  not  only  to  the  point  of  ade- 
quately manning  all  of  our  institutions  and  taking  care  of  all  of  the  work 
now  in  hand,  but  there  must  be  enough  to  go  out  as  pioneers.  This  is  our 
first  and  greatest  need,  the  one  which  must  be  met  before  there  can  be  any 
hope  of  realizing  the  other  items  of  our  program.”

“The  population  of  the  territory  in  which  we  are  working  in  Korea  is 
about  1,300,000.  The  Christians  number  but  little  over  10,000.  Out  of  every 
130  only  one  is  Christian.  Our  objective  is  to  reach  the  lost  120.  We  are 
planning  to  carry  the  Gospel  to  every  man,  woman  and  child.  We  wish  to 
present  it  in  such  a clear,  plain,  direct  and  forcible  way  that  everyone  will 
be  given  not  only  a chance,  but  a good  chance  of  accepting  Christ  as  his 
Savior.  The  foreign  missionary  cannot  go  personally  everywhere,  but  he  can 
plan  the  work,  and  send  the  native  helpers  when  he  cannot  go  himself.  The 
parsonages  are  for  the  native  evangelists.  It  is"  our  purpose  to  place  them 
as  far  as  possible  away  from  present  centers  so  that  the  evangelists  may  be 
able  to  gather  together  new  groups  of  people  in  the  unevangelized  sections.”

NEW  CHURCHES  AND  CHURCH  IMPROVEMENTS 

In  the  absence  of  churches  the  missionary  uses  a tent  and  sometimes  the 
market  places  and  even  private  residences.  The  report  comes  back,  “Every- 
where we  went  there  were  crowds  to  hear  us.  At  some  places  we  could  not 
accommodate  all,  so  the  sides  of  the  tent  had  to  be  let  down.  Thousands  of 
people  were  reached.  Hundreds  of  Gospels  were  sold  and  practically  every 
house  in  each  neighborhood  received  a tract  and  a kind  word  of  invitation.” 
Such  testimony  as  this  clearly  convinces  one  of  the  need  of  an  abiding  church 
home  for  these  multitudes  so  eager  to  hear.

EDUCATIONAL  WORK 

"The  purpose  of  maintaining  schools  in  mission  fields  is  fourfold:  1,  To 

give  an  adequate  education  to  children  of  non-Christian  countries  where 
schools  are  usually  fewer  than  needed.  2.  To  create  an  opportunity  to  preach 
the  Gospel  to  young  people  and  also  to  their  parents  who  may  not  he  reached 
otherwise.  3.  To  train  an  efficient  leadership  for  the  native  church.  -L  To 
educate  fhe  future  leaders  of  the  country  with  the  regular  education  plus 
Christian  principles  and  influence.  The  first  is  of  charity;  the  second  is  of 
duty;  the  third  is  of  necessity;  and  the  fourth  is  of  policy.”

MISCELLANEOUS 

“One  of  the  greatest  needs  of  the  Church  in  Korea  is  a.  Christian  Litera- 
ture. This  need  must  be  met  not  for  the  sake  of  the  preachers  and  Christian 
workers  alone,  but  for  the  educated  non-Christians  who  are  rapidly  increasing 
in  number  and  who  can  be  more  effectively  reached  through  this  means  than 
by  any  other.  It  is  poor  policy  to  spend  time  and  effort  and  money  in  pre- 
paring men  to  do  an  important  work,  and  then  send  them  forth  without  the 
equipment  necessary  for  their  own  sustenance  and  the  prosecution  of  flu*  work 
they  have  been  trained  to  do.  ‘Korea  has  a far  greater  number  of  Christians 
in  proportion  to  the  population  than  any  other  country  in  the  Far  East,’  and 
yet  the  variety  and  range  of  Christian  Literature  is  much  smaller  in  Korea 
than  in  India,  China  or  Japan.”

“This  is  the  only  Christian  school  of  its  grade  in  the  solid  block  of  territory 
in  central  Korea  containing  over  a million  and  a quarter  of  inhabitants  which 
has  been  assigned  exclusively  to  our  Church.  It  has  an  enrollment  of  542. 
Its  graduates  receive  highest  honors  in  Government  examination.  Il  has  the 
confidence  of  all  classes.  Industrial  training  that  will  enable  Korean  Chris- 
tians to  better  their  economic  conditions  is  recognized  universally  among  the 
missionaries  as  one  of  the  greatest  needs  of  Korea,  especially  so  when  Ibis 
provides  a wav  for  worthy  but  poor  students  to  help  themselves  through  school. 
Recently  35  students  walked  in  fiom  the  country  only  to  be  turned  down  and 
sent  away  discouraged  because  our  equipment  was  so  small  we  could  take  but 
(JO  students  in  the  self-help  department.  With  adequate  equipment  we  will 
be  able  to  increase  the  60  to  several  hundred.”

In  tin*  five  stations  of  our  Korean  Mission  we  have  a city  population  for 
whom  we  are  entirely  responsible  of  over  100.000.  < >f  these  not  more  than 
1,000  are  Christians.  A more  persistent,  continued  and  telling  attack  must 
he  made  upon  the  non-Christian  population,  llow  is  it  to  be  done?  If  the 
home  church  will  provide  the  institutional  plants  and  their  equipment,  the 
missionary  will  open  reading  rooms,  night  schools  for  working  boys,  recrea- 
tion rooms,  baths,  a religious  book  store,  etc.,  which  will  render  a practical 
social  service  that  will  attract  non-Christian  men.  Such  an  opportunity  is 
worth  every  dollar  invested.

CENTENARY  PROGRAM— WOMAN’S  WORK 

“Caring  for  the  sheep  already  in  the  fold  and  seeking  the  other  sheep  out- 
side the  fold  are  the  two  forms  of  church  work  absolutely  necessary  for  the 
normal  growth  of  the  Church.  To  correct  the  one-sided  condition  of  placing 
all  the  stress  on  teaching  the  Christians  we  have  already  taken  some  measures 
for  beginning  an  aggressive  evangelistic  campaign  which,  if  conducted  proper- 
ly, will  require  a larger  force  of  both  foreign  and  native  workers.”

“God  has  been  working  at  both  ends  of  the  line.  lie  has  given  us  a vision 
of  the  needs  of  direct  evangelistic  work  among  the  non-Christians  and  our 
inability  to  do  it  because  of  the  lack  of  workers.  During  the  next  five  or  ten

of  the  unevangelized.  Comparing  the  ten  thousand  Christians  of  our  Mission

‘•The  value  of  our  schools  to  the  missionary  enterprise  is  unquestioned. 
They  save  to  the  Church  the  children  of  Christian  homes,  they  bring  the  mis- 
sionary and  native  helper  into  effective  contact  with  many  who  would  other- 
wise be  difficult  to  reach,  they  provide  an  opportunity  for  intense  consecutive 
work  which  is  so  desirable  in  establishing  the  faith  of  those  who  are  with- 
out Christian  traditions  or  heredity,  they  exercise  a salutary  influence  upon 
the  non-Christian  schools,  and  they  are  indispensable  in  the  work  of  training 
Christian  leaders  for  the  future.”

“We  are  feeling  the  need  of  better  trained  workers.  Younger  women  are 
going  to  take  the  place  of  the  faithful  old  Bible  women  of  the  present.  We 
must  have  them  to  meet  and  cope  with  the  problem  of  the  Government  School 
graduates.  Large  numbers  of  these  young  women,  who  for  the  most  part 
have  no  religion  at  all,  are  being  graduated  every  year  from  the  schools  in 
Seoul.  Where  are  these  trained  workers  to  come  from?  They  must  be  trained 
in  our  Mission  Schools,  and  we  must  hear  the  trumpet  call  to  enlarge  and 
improve  our  present  plants  and  provide  a sufficient  number  of  teachers  to  meet 
the  crisis  that  will  surely  be  upon  us  in  the  very  near  future.”

concentrated  efforts.  To  take  advantage  of  the  opportunities  now  open  to 
us  we  are  asking  for  Institutional  Plants  in  each  of  our  stations,  providing

“There  is  no  educational  worker  in  Korea  today  who  is  here  for  the  pur- 
pose of  giving  education  alone.  Our  reasons  for  coming  were  that  we  might 
exemplify  the  Christ  and  lift  Him  up  before  the  people  that  He  might  draw 
hundreds  who  sit  in  heathen  darkness  unto  Himself.  Surpassed  only  by  ihe 
influence  of  the  mother  over  the  child  is  the  influence  of  the  teacher  for  good. 
Granting  that  all  the  schools  for  which  we  long  were  ours,  it  is  not  the  at- 
tendance upon  a Mission  School  that  saves  a child,  but  through  the  influence 
of  the  Christian  School  coming  into  vital  relationship  with  Jesus  Christ.”

PLAZA  LERDO,  MEXICO  CITY 


MEXICO 

Mexico,  our  ueighbor,  whose  territory  stretches  from  our  southern  border 
almost  to  our  possessions  on  the  Isthmus  of  Panama,  is  one  of  our  most  im- 
portant Mission  Fields.  For  her  evangelization  no  church  has  a greater  re 
sponsibility  than  has  the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South.  The  chaos 
occasioned  by  the  revolutions  which  raged  throughout  the  Republic  for  years 
has  in  many  places  utterly  destroyed  the  work  and  in  all  places  hindered  it, 
hut  order  is  being  restored  and  re-entering  the  field  need  not  be  delayed  long- 
er. While  the  revolution  caused  disappointment  and  anxiety,  it  was  not  an 
unmixed  evil.  Many  abuses  have  been  swept  away,  as  the  following  statement 
by  one  on  the  field  will  show:  “While  there  remain,  especially  among  the 

women,  many  devout  Catholics,  there  has  been  a great  falling  away  from 
Roman  Catholicism  during  the  past  six  or  seven  years.  Romanism’s  attitude 
toward  political  affairs  has  stirred  up  a great  deal  of  antagonism  on  the  part 
of  political  leaders.  The  attitude  of  the  Government  toward  us  is  quite  fa- 
vorable. Protestant  teachers  are  employed  in  Government  schools  with  pref- 
erence. The  Government  usually  looks  upon  Protestants  as  those  that  can  be 
depended  upon.”

WORKERS 

For  the  reopening  and  extension  of  the  work  in  Mexico  sixteen  men  and 
thirteen  women  missionaries  are  needed.  The  news  comes  that  the  Churches 
are  filled  to  overflowing,  many  giving  themselves  to  the  Lord  and  receiving 
baptism.  Equally  urgent  is  the  rebuilding  of  churches  destroyed  in  the  on- 
rush of  revolution,  and  erecting  new  ones  in  strategic  places.  In  the  na- 
tion’s capital  and  surrounding  country,  in  the  past  two  years,  unusual  suc- 
cess in  selling  Bibles  and  portions  has  attended  the  work  of  the  American 
Bible  Society.  Church  members  did  all  they  could  to  aid  this  work.  Much 
good  was  accomplished  by  this,  and  a more /diligent  study  of  the  Word  and 
an  increased  attendance  on  the  church  services  has  been  the  outcome.

‘‘Through  the  Missionary  Centenary  we  appeal  to  the  whole  Church  to  come 
to  llio  help  of  Mexico.  Wo  ask  the  Church  to  make  a careful  study  of  the 
conditions  of  a religiously  starved  people  and  then  give  herself  to  God  in 
prayer  for  Mexico's  ledemption  in  this  generation.  We  appeal  to  the  Church 
to  give  as  she  has  never  yet  given  toward  the  moral  and  spiritual  uplift  of 
fifteen  millions  of  people  who  know  not  God.”

EDUCATIONAL  AND  MEDICAL  WORK 

Plans  for  developing  the  Educational  work  on  a large  scale  come  to  us 
from  Mexico.  Sixty  per  cent  of  the  people  are  illiterate.  It  is  a well-known 
fact,  however,  that  nearly  all  Protestant  Christians  can  read  and  write,  which 
fact  greatly  strengthens  the  claim  that  the  services  of  a large  number  of 
missionaries  must  be  secured  for  Educational  Work.  A strong  appeal  is  made 
for  the  building  of  a school  in  the  City  of  Mexico.  Along  the  border  and  even 
among  the  Mexicans  on  the  Pacific  Coast  the  work  must  be  pushed.  It  is 
urged  that  Industrial  and  Normal  Schools  be  established,  that  the  Protestants 
may  be  fitted  to  become  leaders  in  State  and  society.

More  than  7,000  pupils  have  passed  through  (his  Institution,  and  gradu- 
ate's from  the  Normal  Department  are  teaching  in  many  of  the  different  States 
of  Mexico  in  both  Mission  and  Government  schools.  At  present  the  work  is 
being  carried  on  in  a building  wholly  inadequate  for  the  purpose.  The  Gov- 
ernor of  the  State  of  Coahuila,  who  was  a pupil  of  the  school  when  a small 
child,  estimates  the  work  of  this  Institution  so  highly  that  he  has  expressed 
his  desire  to  aid  in  (In*  const] action  of  a new  building  by  securing  materials 
in  Mexico  at  a cheaper  rate  than  they  could  be  bought  without  his  influence, 
and  by  obtaining  permission  from  the  Federal  Authorities  to  allow  materials 
lor  the  building  to  be  brought  from  the  Fnited  States  without  duty.  Gradu- 
ates from  this  school  taking  examination  in  the  State  Normal  School  are

There  is  a great  field  in  Mexico  for  work  of  this  kind,  by  means  of  which

Never  before  have  Mexican  doors  been  so  wide  open  for  the  entrance  ol 
Evangelical  Christianity.  Many  of  the  leaders  in  the  present  Mexican  Gov- 
ernment are  Protestants,  some  of  whom  are  the  products  of  the  educational 
institutions  of  Southern  Methodism.  “Mexico  today  is  governed  by  men  from 
the  section  of  Mexico,  for  the  evangelization  of  which  the  Methodist  Episco- 
pal Church,  South,  is  primarily  responsible.”

CENTENARY  PROGRAM— GENERAL  WORK 

CHRISTIANIZATION  OF  FOREIGNERS 

To  Americanize  and  Christianize  the  millions  of  foreigners  in  the  United 
States  is  the  largest,  the  most  urgent  and  the  most  fleeting  opportunity  be- 
fore the  American  people.  By  common  consent  we  should  drop  the  word  ‘•For- 
eigner” and  call  them  ‘‘Allies.”  The  major  part  of  their  people  in  the  old 
country  were  our  allies,  and  the  young  men  of  these  races  in  our  country 
fought  side  by  side  with  our  own  boys  in  khaki.  Our  Church  is  helping  to 
Americanize  and  Christianize  Italians,  French,  Cubans,  Bohemians,  Mexicans, 
Japanese  and  Koreans.  This  is  the  time  of  times  to  assume  the  support  of  a 
home  missionary,  and  to  become  definitely  and  worthily  linked  up  with  giving 
the  Gospel  to  the  man  who  is  to  go  back  sooner  or  later  heathen  or  Christian.

With  scarcely  an  exception  we  are  able  to  establish  a Sunday  school  and 
Church  in  his  home.  These  men  are  the  pillars  of  Protestantism  all  over

INDIAN  AND  MOUNTAIN  WORK 


A wag  said  that  the  Pilgrim  Fathers,  on  arriving  in  America,  first  fell 
upon  their  knees  and  then  forthwith  fell  upon  the  Aborigines.  This  is  net 
true.  The  praying  people  have  ministered  to  the  Indians  in  the  name  of  the 
Lord  Jesus.  Other  people,  who  do  not  pray,  have  exploited  the  Indians. 
Christians  have  prayed  for  the  Indians,  while  some  of  the  un-Christian  ele- 
ments have  preyed  upon  them.  The  undivided  Methodist  Church  began  work 
among  the  Indians  in  1S22.  In  1S44,  when  the  Methodist  Church  was  divided, 
by  common  consent,  the  Indian  work  among  the  Five  Civilized  Tribes  fell  to 
the  Methodist  Episcopal  Church,  South.  Since  that  time  our  Board  of  Mis- 
sions has  contributed  to  the  Indian  work  more  than  a million  dollars.  We 
aie  now  maintaining  one  geneial  superintendent  and  two  district  superin- 
tendents and  are  helping  to  sustain  a large  number  of  Indian  pastors.

NEGRO  WORK  AND  MISCELLANEOUS 

Our  Church  believes  that  we  can  best  sei  ve  the  Negro  by  helping  him  in 
his  Church.  As  is  well  known,  our  Church  organized  our  colored  membership 
into  a separate  Church  in  1870.  The  Colored  Methodist  Episcopal  Church  has 
made  great  progress.  We  have  always  maintained  an  advisory  and  helpful 
i elationship.  They  need  most  help  in  educational  matters.  As  is  well  known, 
our  Church  maintains  for  them  Paine  College.  The  Board  of  Education  also 
helps  in  the  maintenance  of  Lane  College.  The  Epwortli  League  will  make 
a Centenary  offering  of  one  hundred  thousand  dollars  for  buildings  for  Paine 
College.

“I  cannot  stress  too  strongly  the  importance  of  concentrating  on  Paine 
College  to  make  il  an  institution  second  to  none  of  its  kind  in  the  nation.  1 
am  sure  you  will  not  forget  that  this  is  the  only  Negro  school  actually  owned 
and  controlled  by  the  Methodist  episcopal  Church.  South.  Obviously  it  will 
he  wise  to  place  one-half  of  our  Negro  work  funds  where  our  Church  is  in 
direct  control.  We  are  steadily  increasing  the  fees  for  tuition  and  board 
until  the  students  will  pay  a fair  share  of  our  running  expenses.  In  the 
present  school  year  our  students  will  pay  into  the  college  treasury  nearly 
#5.000  more  than  last  year.  The  increased  appropriations  we  are  asking  are 
not  for  current  expenses  at  all.  hut  for  permanent  enlargement.”  (Extract 
from  letter  of  Albert  D.  I lefts,  President  of  Paine  College.) 

EFFICIENCY  SUPERINTENDENTS,  MOUNTAIN  WORK 
(Annually)  #15,000. 

The  following  Districts  require  such  Superintendents  for  the  Mountain 
Work:  Eastern  Kentucky,  Eastern  Tennessee.  Western  North  Carolina.  South- 
western Virginia,  Northwestern  Georgia,  and  Northwestern  Arkansas. 

The  purest  and  richest  Anglo-Saxon  blood  to  be  found  in  the  world  is  in 
the  mountains  of  the  South.  While  many  thousands  remain  much  as  they 
were  one  hundred  years  ago,  some  have  been  brought  under  the  influence  of 
modern  movements  and  have  shown  an  ability  and  susceptibility  not  found 
among  young  people  from  the  lowlands  or  the  city.  Conference  boards  are 
doing  much  for  them.  The  Hoard  of  Missions  is  helping  some.  It  is  desired 
to  place  an  Efficiency  Superintendent  in  each  Mountain  District,  who  shall 
increase  the  efficiency  of  the  work  already  being  done  and  map  out  new  fields 
to  be  occupied.

CENTENARY  PROGRAM— WOMAN’S  WORK 

LATIN  AMERICANS  AND  ORIENTALS 

More  than  1,000,000  Mexicans  and  many  Cubans  now  live  within  our  bor- 
ders, and  these,  for  the  most  part,  are  wretchedly  poor,  illiterate,  unskilled, 
full  of  prejudice,  and  inclined  to  atheism.  To  leave  them  in  their  present 
condition  is  a menace  to  society.  We  already  have  at  Holding  Institute, 
Laredo,  Texas,  376  students  and  a teaching  force  of  15.  The  Homer  Toberman 
Clinic  and  Wesley  House,  Los  Angeles,  California,  ministers  to  7,000  peo- 
ple, and  Wolff  Settlement,  Tampa,  Florida,  serves  12,000  Cubans.  We  pro 
pose  to  erect  a Girls’  Dormitory,  remodel  Ihc  Boys’  Dormitory,  and  provide 
a large  Administration  Building  for  Holding  Institute,  build  a Wesley  House 
at  Tampa,  Florida,  with  playground  equipment,  day  nursery  attachment, 
clinic,  kindergarten,  social  club,  and  class  room.  Buildings  to  suit  the  de- 
mands of  the  work  at  Los  Angeles  and  Key  West  must  be  erected.

This  Institution  has  served  as  an  educational  center  for  Mexicans  on  the 
border  since  1882.  The  buildings  are  wholly  inadequate  and  the  furnishings 
no  credit  to  the  Church.  Last  year  it  turned  away  two  hundred  for  lack  of 
dormitory  capacity.

This  Wesley  House  is  located  in  a community  of  10,000  Mexicans.  The 
homes  of  l lit*  people  are  small.  Most  of  them  take  in  washing,  and  with  no 
place  for  drying  the  clothes  and  ironing  them  save  in  their  living  rooms.  It

tive. This  building  must  serve  the  Clinic,  which  is  large;  it  must  also  serve 
the  congregation,  residences  for  the  workers  and  space  for  clubs  and  classes.

day  nursery  is  a demand  for  any  evangelistic  institution  among  the  Cubans. 
Getting  the  children  under  evangelistic  touch  means  holding  them  and  their 
families  for  future  development.

own  but  one  piece  of  property,  and  the  development  of  the  work  at  that  place 
far  exceeds  in  efficiency  that  at  other  points.  A building  must  be  erected  to 
serve  as  Church  and  Social  Center  at  Oakland.  For  the  same  reason  a build- 


OEACONESS  MARY  HASLER  BREVARD  INSTITUTE  MISS  DAISY  RITTER

ing  must  he  erected  at  Dinuba.  The  Korean  Church  and  Mission  in  San 
Francisco  is  forced  to  occupy  rented  property  which  may  be  taken  from  us  at 
any  time.  This  Church  is  the  largest  organization  for  Koreans  in  America. 


The  importance  of  Oriental  Missions  in  the  United  States  cannot  be  over 
estimated.  We  want  to  give  the  foreigner  t lie  best  we  have  in  our  civilization. 
Christianity  is  our  best,  and  the  Chinese  or  Japanese  will  be  a force  for  good 
in  bis  new  home  if  he  can  only  embody  in  his  life  the  Christ  life. 

Ten  thousand  of  the  130,000  Japanese  are  to  be  evangelized  by  our  Church 
or  live  among  us  as  pagans.  It  is  for  us  to  choose.  Twelve  hundred  Koreans 
have  also  been  alloted  to  us.  This  work  is  now  being  carried  on  vigorously  and 
successfully.  Five  Japanese  and  Korean  preachers  and  six  other  trained  work- 
ers make  up  our  working  force.  Our  work  for  the  Japanese  at  Alameda  is  car- 
ried on  in  Mary  Helm  Hall.  The  Japanese  themselves  have  erected  a Mission 
in  the  Sacramento  River  Circuit  which  is  served  by  a Japanese  pastor.  In 
the  city  of  San  Francisco  a commodious  hall  is  rented  for  the  Koreans,  called 
by  them  the  Korean  Center  of  North  America.  Already  we  have  an  Oriental 
membership  of  250.  We  propose  to  purchase  a building  at  Oakland  adequate 
for  church,  school,  and  social  work  and  furnish  rooms  which  may  be  rented 
to  transient  Japanese,  and  establish  a church,  educational,  and  social  center 
at  Dinuba. 

GULF  COAST,  MOUNTAINS  AND  MINES 

Along  the  Gulf  Coast  we  have  the  foreign  problem  on  our  hands.  The 
French  element  and  the  newer  Italian  element  must  come  under  evangelical 
influence,  otherwise  our  own  work  in  that  region  is  sure  to  be  hindered.  A 
Wesley  House  at  Riloxi,  and  St.  Mark’s  Hall,  Esplanade  Street,  New  Orleans, 
are  in  charge  of  trained  workers,  and  great  good  is  being  accomplished.  At 
Houma  there  are  two  trained  workers  conducting  clubs  and  classes  among  the 
scattered  French  people  as  the  beginning  of  a larger  work,  and  a port  mis- 
sionary as  the  representative  of  the  Church  of  God  stands  at  Port  Galveston 
to  help  the  immigrants  in  their  hour  of  need  as  they  reach  our  shores.  We 
propose  to  erect  a church  and  gymnasium  for  the  fishermen  at  Riloxi;  pur- 
chase property  and  erect  a suitable  building  for  the  enlarged  work  at  St. 
Mark’s  Hall,  New  Orleans;  provide  a Gospel  Center  for  rescue  work  and 
service  for  (he  “down-and-out”  in  the  congested  sections  of  New  Orleans;  be- 
gin educational  work  for  the  girls  of  the  French  people  of  Louisiana,  and 
make  permanent  the  immigration  work  of  Galveston.

A gymnasium,  kindergarten  room  and  enlargement  of  the  Day  Nursery 
are  needed  for  I lie  present  work.  A Clinic  must  be  added.  The  foreign  born 
people  who  settle  in  lliis  community  are  extremely  poor,  know  little  of  sani 
tat  ion  and  need  physical  as  well  as  spiritual  help.

Without  doubt  the  biggest  and  tin*  greatest  demand  of  the  Centenary  in

A building  to  furnish  residence  for  trained  workers,  space  for  clubs  and

This  splendid  school,  with  its  magnificent  record  of  service,  needs  a chapel, 
gymnasium,  library  and  an  addition  to  the  boys'  dormitory.  It  must  have  a 
laundry.  Think  of  a school  of  four  hundred  students  without  a laundry  and 
a chapel ! 

WESLEY  HOUSES  AT  MINES  (NEW  WORK)  $10,00o 


Two  excellent  schools,  well  equipped,  and  satisfying  the  demands  made  on 
them,  are  well  supported  by  this  Department. 

The  Sue  Bennett  Memorial  School,  London,  Kentucky,  has  valuable  prop 
erty.  408  students  in  attendance  and  a faculty  of  seventeen  teachers. 

Brevard  Institute,  Brevard,  North  Carolina,  has  high  standards,  271  stu- 
dents and  14  teachers.  A high-school  building,  chapel,  and  boys’  dormitory 
are  to  be  erected  at  the  former  school  and  a boys'  dormitory  at  the  latter. 

Two  Wesley  Houses  have  been  established  in  mining  districts  and  success- 
fully used.  Eight  Deaconesses  have  been  engaged  in  different  mining  sec- 
tions and  the  number  is  to  be  doubled. 

CITY  WORK  AND  DEACONESS  TRAINING 

The  Home  Department  of  the  Woman’s  Missionary  Council,  co-operating 
with  thirty -six  City  Mission  Boards,  have  seven  co-operative  homes  for  young 
working  women  and  forty  Wesley  Houses  or  other  social  institutions  in  for- 
eign, negro,  cotton  mill,  and  other  English-speaking  industrial  sections.  Last 


(89) 


year  ninety-two  Deaconesses  personally  reached  23,200  homes.  The  Wesley 
Houses  served  208  industrial  classes,  19  night  schools,  and  205  clubs  that  give 
education,  manual  training,  and  the  teaching  of  English  to  foreigners.  Our 
accommodations  are  inadequate,  for  in  one  city  alone  750  young  women  were 
turned  away  for  lack  of  room.  We  have  definite  plans  to  increase  the  num- 
ber of  Deaconesses  and  Missionaries  to  meet  the  demands  of  the  vast  home 
mission  field,  to  provide  Methodist  dormitories  at  State  schools  and  univer- 
sities, to  build  a hospital  for  the  special  training  of  Christian  nurses  for  dis- 
trict service,  to  provide  scholarships  for  language  study  for  those  who  serve 
in  foreign  communities,  and  to  increase  the  number  of  Co-operative  Homes.

There  are  more  Methodist  young  women  in  the  State  Colleges  and  Uni- 
versities  than  are  listed  in  our  Methodist  Schools.  Religious  instruction  is 
prohibited  in  State  schools,  and  while  many  noble  men  and  women  are  un- 
consciously molding  life  by  the  power  of  their  Christian  personality,  there 
are  many  others  who  through  this  same  power  of  personality  hold,  if  not 
agnostic,  anti-Christian  influences  upon  the  students.  The  State  commands 
resources  not  available  to  the  denominations,  and  Methodist  students  go  where 
they  can  get  what  they  want.  If  the  Church  is  to  conserve  its  young  people — 
who  go  to  the  State  institutions — to  Christian  citizenship,  it  must  recognize 
this  menace  and  prepare  to  meet  it.  A Church  dormitory,  near  the  campus, 
with  positive  Christian  character,  can  create  an  environment  which  must  do 
ils  part  toward  anchoring  the  children  of  the  Church  in  the  faith  of  their 
fathers.

The  by-product  of  our  civilization  is  the  broken,  impoverished  home  of 
the  helpless  girl.  For  thirteen  years  the  Vashti  School  has  done  a great 
work  among  these  children  at  a time  when  they  needed  a friend.  The  present 
building  is  entirely  inadequate.  The  method  of  conduct  of  the  Institution  must 
be  mended.  This  cannot  he  done  until  the  cottage  system  is  introduced.

add  to  the  equipment  of  the  only  training  school  we  have  in  the  Church.

including  a library,  society  balls,  and  a large  dining  room  are  to  be  erected 
at  Paine  College.  The  Bethlehem  House  at  Nashville,  Tennessee,  is  to  be  en- 
larged so  as  to  include  a chapel,  class  and  club  rooms,  equipment  for  indus- 
trial training,  and  a gymnasium.  The  Augusta  Bethlehem  House  must  lx* 
remodeled  and  have  new  equipment,  and  tin*  number  of  these  bouses  multiplied

Last  year  we  turned  away  twice  as  many  as  we  admitted.  We  are  asking 
for  two  buildings  like  Bennett  Hall  which  will  accommodate  two  hundred 
more  girls.  The  rooms  used  for  industrial  training  are  small  and  inadequate. 
Paine  students  could  get  better  facilities  than  have  been  furnished  them  by 
our  Church,  but  there  is  a loyalty  on  the  part  of  the  colored  Church  to  the 
M.  E.  Church,  South,  which  cannot  be  overlooked.  Provision  must  be  made 
for  the  children  of  our  own  denomination,  because  the  C.  M.  E.  Church  is  our 
own.  At  Paine  there  is  no  provision  for  sickness.  An  infirmary  is  demanded, 
according  to  the  health  program  of  the  nation.

We  own  a small  building  where  social  and  educational  work  is  conducted 
in  a densely  populated  negro  community.  A residence  for  the  workers  is  a 
necessity.  A laundry  where  the  colored  washerwomen  may  bring  their  laundry 
would  be  the  greatest  community  benefactor  that  one  could  offer  to  the  colored 

people.

An  experience  in  racial  co-operation  for  the  betterment  of  the  negro  is  in 
process  here.  The  poor  and  ignorant  negro  waif,  the  unlettered  mother,  t lie 
sick,  the  needy  who  have  not  had  a chance,  are  found  by  the  Bethlehem  House 
workers,  Deaconesses  and  other  trained  workers.  The  educated  negro  men  and 
women  who  have  something  to  give  their  brothers  are  sought  out  and  come  to 
help  serve  the  needy  of  their  own  race.  The  work  at  this  point  furnishes 
not  only  an  opportunity  for  the  up  lift  of  those  who  are  in  need,  hut  it  serves 
as  a training  center  for  the  Social  Service  Department  of  one  of  the  leading 
negro  universities.  This  work,  in  which  we  have  been  engaged  lor  six  years, 
is  housed  in  a rented  building  which  is  totally  inadequate.  For  the  institu- 
tion to  measure  up  even  half-way  to  its  opportunities  all  of  the  items  asked 
for  must  be  provided.

sionaries for  the  Woman’s  Work  at  home  and  abroad.  The  School  has  ren- 
dered over  twenty-live  years  of  effective  service,  and  over  one  thousand  young 
women  have  received  training  within  its  halls.  To  meet  the  NEW  needs  cre- 
ated by  the  ENLARGED  MISSIONARY  CENTENARY  PROGRAM  of  the 
Church,  this  institution  must  be  enlarged  and  more  substantially  equipped. 
The  Centenary  Movement  is  calling  for  one  hundred  and  fifty-nine  well- 
equipped  new  women  missionaries  and  deaconesses  AS  A MINIMUM  for  the 
next  five  years.  The  Scarritt  Bible  and  Training  School  must  be  prepared 
to  meet  this  new  demand  for  the  enlistment  and  training  of  life.  There  is  no 
greater  call  through  the  Centenary.

SOME  RESULTS  OF  GERMAN  KULTUR 


RECONSTRUCTION  PROGRAM 

The  present  world  crisis  challenges  the  Church  of  Christ  to  meet  the  needs 
of  humanity  in  the  spirit  of  sacrifice  and  service. 

The  war  is  still  on  and  must  be  until  we  have  made  the  world  as  safe  for 
Jesus  Christ  as  we  have  made  it  safe  for  democracy. 

To  the  war-broken  lands  of  Europe  the  Centenary  will  mean  the  rebuild- 
ing of  ruined  towns  and  villages,  the  care  of  orphans,  the  re-establishment  of 
the  people  in  their  homes,  the  building  of  churches  and  the  interpretation  of 
Evangelical  Christianity  to  the  masses. 

A special  Commission  of  American  Methodism  visited  France,  Italy  and 
Belgium. 

They  saw  the  ravages  and  cruelties  the  War  of  Autocracy  had  imposed  upon 
people  and  country. 

Their  hearts  were  mightily  moved  with  compassion  and  pity. 

The  details  of  a great  constructive  program  of  love  and  service  are  now 
being  sympathetically  wrought  out.
